It actually looks a lot like the C7, but the ZR1 in particular. The front bumpers are so similar and the overall design of the tail lights are very close, especially when they light up. The quarter panel and rear hatch all have similar shapes and lines.
Both car looks great but the ZR1 looks more aggressive in my opinion due to the color, big wing, hood vents and aero. The C8 looks really good too but the wheels still doesn't look right at all matched up to a mid engine sports car. They look way too generic.

Nope sorry, the youth of today disagrees. FE Vettes are dinosaurs now, even though I still like older Corvettes. Just the facts.

I’m seeing a $60K car and a $130K car. I can’t comfortably afford the $130K car, so I’ll take the $60K car.
